"77 Satellites"

It's allright to be held back by retro-man.
it's far fetched fun when you're the one.
The prize.
I knew you would come through.
I thought I could be right, number one,
but it's a lie.
It's televised in forest green.
it's been brought back by retro-man.
Hold your thoughts in.
It ain't yet over.
You won't slide under me.
The prize.
I knew you would come through.
I thought I could be right, number one,
but it's a lie.

"What Would I Say To You Now"

Still sitting there with your legs crossed,
not paying attention to me.
If we talk, just curious, would this end up like it always does?
All the wrong I've done.
All the wrong I'll do.
Keeps me from trying.
It keeps me quiet.
Throw out your arms to each side.
It's easier to let things go.
When we talk think what we say: there's questons then silence and
in silence we remain.
All the wrong I've done and all the wrong I'll do.
It keeps me from trying.
Keeps me from calling you.
Something I just found out.
Something you know by now.
Hope makes you so strong.
Strength keeps you alone and far away.

"Speed Read"

Save the wrapping for another.
Dressing doesn't mean a thing to me.
Submission for a ladder rung. You decide what you're used for,
you decide.
I know what you are, what you are.
I see clearly what you are, what you are.

"Spangle"

I'm glad you found the time to ring.
I just spent all day waiting.
I need to know what's happening.
Well at least we both agree.
Really don't know where to start.
Did you say you met some neighbor.
I guess I'm headed for a broken heart.
Why are you doing this to me?
It's so clear.
I can hear, and i'm not gonna share you with no one.
Surprise, I've got eyes, now goodbye.
How long have you had this planned?
Guess it shows how much you care.
Now I understand how I just played the fool.
Sure I'm gonna let you go.
I was wrong to ever trust you.
Don't think that you'll ever know how you could be so cruel.
It's so clear.
I can hear, and i'm not gonna share you with no one.
Surprise, I've got eyes, now goodbye.

"H Model"

"Straight outta Phoenix boys."
Stay up late and listen in.
Trading insult for your time.
It breaks my heart in half to see her jumping up and down screaming:
"Cash in honey, cash in now."
Lift your hands up slow.
If only you could see yourself.
Everything you are immitate and water down.
lf Just because you'll never have your politics with perfect means,
doesn't mean you talk the round and round.
Forsdale's syringe is wearing so thin.
Lift your hands up slow.
If only you could see yourself.
Everything we are immitate and water down.
They'll never know your world no matter how they try.
It's your world.
Never know, they'll never know your world
(it's above us)

"Christmas Card"

Hey still staring little girl,
are you looking at or past me?
Worry.
Simple symptoms won't leave you this underweight or red in the eyes.
No more rules, the ones we make don't last the night.
So pick up the pieces.
Start again, start over tuesday morning.
Conscience clean.
This card, postmarked December 23.
The caption reads:"How does he do it?"
Ms. too bad he treats me like i'm dead.
Nothing works to make this easy.
No more lies.
The ones we live will work just fine.
So pick up the pieces.
Start again, start over tuesday morning.
Conscience clean, alone.
I hope you figure out what it is you want.

"Untitled"

Porch light alone as you stepped out.
You stepped out.
It made a silhouette of your head, then you walked down.

"Carbon Scoring"

Here we go.
(My only cold I fought.)
Here I am, frozen in time I find a way from you, pave the way.
And cause I can't stand still they'll leave you down and out.
And when your face gets here I'll stab you in the back.
Tell me now, I need to know how long.
Clear the way.
Don't make me wait all day.
With you, from you, pave my way.
And cause I can't stand still, they'll leave you down and out.
And when your face gets here I'll stab you in the back.
It's a long way home.
Can't you find your way?
I'm a trampoline.
Lift me up over farenheit.
I'm a trampoline.

"The Most Beautiful Things"

You say the most beautiful things,
an endless list of treasures of trimmings.
It takes all my faith just to start
I don't care now how much I'm wrong
my song it shames your ears
every sentence a failure.
Slant rhyme is all I can give half truth is all I'll get.
Show us all what grace can mean,
all of what I might be.
Close your eyes call it escape.
We'll run away from everything
Lie to me,
love me
We'll run away from everything.

Bleed American

I’m not alone cause the TV’s on yeah.
I’m not crazy cause I take the right pills everyday.
And rest, clean your conscious, clear your thoughts with speyside with your grain.
Clean your conscious, clear your thoughts with speyside.
Salt, sweat, sugar on the asphalt.
Our hearts littering the topsoil.
Tune in and we can get the last call.
Our lives, our coal.
Salt, sweat, sugar on the asphalt.
Our hearts littering the topsoil.
Sign up it's the picket line or the parade.
Our lives.
